It’s that time of year again! November is United Way fundraising month at TIES.
United Way of Calgary and Area is a local charity that works to realize a brighter future for everyone across the communities we serve. Our involvement in this city-wide campaign helps create lasting social change to overcome poverty, help kids succeed, and build strong communities. United Way of Calgary Area also supports our Financial Literacy programming at TIES!
This year’s campaign, Show Your Local Love, will run for the month of November and will feature plenty of activities! To get involved, check out the initiatives below:

Eva’s Plants
A big thank you goes to our HR Manager Eva Su, who made a huge contribution to this fundraiser by selling plants to our staff team. Each plant was lovingly propagated from Eva’s own house plants, including snake plants, spider plants, succulents and peace lilies.
